What is Alibre Workshop?

Alibre Workshop combines the features of Alibre Atom3D and MeshCAM Pro, allowing users to design and refine 3D models alongside 2D sketches prior to generating toolpaths for milling machines. After finalizing your designs, the next step is simply to approach the milling machine and start the operation. You can create relief images using your favorite image editing tools or by finding them online. Machining these images directly enables stunning outcomes without needing CAD software. The potential uses are extensive, encompassing everything from signage to terrain models and artistic projects, thereby unlocking a world of creative possibilities. With this level of flexibility, transforming your visions into physical works of art becomes an achievable reality, making it easier than ever to bring your imagination to life.
